Archive:Morote Hazushi
Morote Hazushi is a Yawara technique in Danzan Ryu Jujitsu.
Technique Description
Uke (attacker) grabs one ofTori's (defender's) wrists. Tori clasps his hand together and snaps upward at Uke's thumbs.
Technique history
Morote Hazushi is generally one of the first on the list of Yawara due to its relationship to other wrist esacpes.[1]
Variations
Circular escapes
Circular escapes are variations on the art in which instead of snapping upward, Tori breaks Uke's grip by rotating his wrist around Uke's and escapes by using his wrist as a lever.
